I. Research Objective To verify the efficacy of an animated nurse-patient interaction model in alleviating postoperative pain in children with congenital heart disease, optimize non-pharmacological analgesic nursing processes for children post-surgery, and improve family nursing satisfaction. II. Research Subjects Thirty-five children aged 3-7 years who underwent curative surgery for congenital heart disease were selected and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each consisting of 35 cases. * Inclusion criteria: Normal cognitive function, admitted to the intensive care unit post-surgery, and family informed consent obtained. * Exclusion criteria: Concurrent severe organ or neurological diseases, occurrence of severe postoperative complications, or resistance to animated intervention. III. Research Methods 1. Intervention Measures * Control group: Implemented routine postoperative pain management for congenital heart disease (pharmacological analgesia + basic nursing). * Observation group: On the basis of routine nursing, preoperative assessment of children's animated preferences was conducted. Appropriate-age animations were played 15-30 minutes per session, 3-4 times per day when the child's vital signs were stable post-surgery. Nurses synchronized interactive activities, and pain was assessed every 2 hours, with intervention strategies adjusted based on scoring. 2. Observation Index \- Secondary indicators: Child anxiety score, family anxiety score (SAS), nursing satisfaction. 3. Statistical Analysis: SPSS 26.0 software was used. t-test was performed for measurement data, and χ² test was performed for counting data. P \< 0.05 was considered as statistically significant difference. IV. Implementation Steps 1. Preparation Phase: Form a team, develop the protocol and informed consent form, and train the researchers. 2. Intervention phase: Recruitment and grouping of subjects, implementation of interventions, and data collection. 3. Analysis and Summary Phase: Conduct statistical analysis of data, prepare reports, and establish standardized nursing procedures. V. Ethics and Expected Outcomes Ethics: With approval from the hospital's ethics committee and after obtaining informed consent from the family, the child may voluntarily withdraw from the study. The control group will receive equivalent intervention opportunities after completing the study.

Postoperative Pain Assessment in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Timeframe: 1 hours after tube removal to 48 hours after surgery
Pain Assessment
Timeframe: The responsible nurse used the Wong-Baker Facial Expression Scale to assess pain at 1 hour, 6 hours after tube removal, 24 hours, and 48 hours post-operation, and recorded the scores on the corresponding assessment forms. The researchers reviewed these a
